> there are many things much more poisonous than radionuclide you can use to make terror weapons I guess that the effectiveness of terror weapons has nothing to do with how many people are directly harmed. > You can build a dirty bomb from the activated wastes of a fusion plant though so the original point stand still. Even simpler would be to find a radioactive source (medical, irradiation, industrial radiography). Small quantities, in a portable package, but geiger detectors would definitely be able to detect the fallout.
